Del Mar Race 1

Stake: $115,576

NOT SO MERRY MARY (3) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing second last time when she was in the firing line all the way over 1207m at Santa Anita (Dirt). Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. PRINCESS LUNA (5) returns after three months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 1006m at Del Mar Turf (Turf). Has ability and is a solid chance. SASSY JOAN (4) was at long odds on debut last time out and finished fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Expected to feature with improvement to come. ENDLESS SMOKE (6) was unplaced on turf over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf two back then again couldn't find the top-three on the same surface last time out, finishing sixth over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf. One of the genuine hopes in the race.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 49-day let-up. Last start raced on the pace when 2nd of 9 at Santa Anita on September 26 over 1207m, 17 len behind Ember Royale carrying 55.5kg at $2.70. The race before that sat on the pace when 2nd of 10 at this track on August 30 over 1207m, 2.25 len behind Beautiful Dawn carrying 55.5kg at $6.50. Best form should see her measure right up.

At debut, 5th of 10 at Santa Anita Turf on October 4 over 1207m, 3.5 len behind Just Work It Out carrying 55.5kg at $22.20. Will have benefited from that outing and is likely to measure up.
